D Bm G A
in the bleak mid – winter , icy wind made moan
angels and arch – angels , may have gathered there .
what then can i give him , empty as i Am

D Bm G A D
earth stood hard as iron , water like a stone
cherubim and seraphim rising in the air .
if i were A shepherd , i would bring a lamb

Em F#m Gmaj7 A Bm7 Em Asus4 A
snow on snow had fall – en , snow on snow on snow
oh but only ma – ry in her maiden bliss
if i were A wise – man , i would know my part
